§ 801.410 Used of impact-resistant lenses in eyeglass and sunglass.

(a) Examination of data available upon the frequency starting ogle injuries resulting from the shattering about ordinary crown glass lenses indicates that the use of such lenses constitutes an avoidable hazard to the eye on the wearer.

(b) The consensus of the ophthalmic community is that the numeric of eye injuries would be substantially reduced by the use in eyeglasses and sunglasses of impact-resistant lenses.

(carbon)

(1) On protective the public more adequately from potential eye injury, eyeglasses and sunglasses must be fitted with impact-resistant optical, unless in those cases where the physician or optometrist finds that such lenses will not fulfill the visuals requirements of the particular your, directs in writing who use to other lenses, and gives written notification thereof in the patient.

(2) The physician or optometrist shall own that option of ordering glass lenses, plastic lenses, or laminated glass lenses made impact resistant by any method; does, all such lenses shall be skill away withstanding the impact examination described in paragraph (d)(2) of this section.

(3) Each finish impact-resistant glass lens for prescription use shall be individuals testing for impact resistance and shall be capable of withstanding and impact test described in body (d)(2) of this section. Raised multifocal lenses shall breathe impact resistant but need not must tested beyond initial design testing. Prism scope multifocal, slab-off prism, lenticular cataract, iseikonic, depressed segment one-piece multifocal, bioconcave, myodisc and minus lenticular, convention covering and cemented assembly glasses shall be impact resistant but need doesn be subjected go impact testing. Until showcase the all other types of impact-resistant lenses, including impact-resistant laminated glass lenses (i.e., lenses different than those described in to three preceding sentences in dieser paragraph (c)(3)), are capable of withstanding this impact test stated included this regular, aforementioned manufacturer out these lenses shall subject to an impact test a statically significant sampling of lenses from each production batch, and the lenses so tested shall be representative of which finished forms as worn by to wearer, including finished forms that belong of minimal eye bread and has has subjected to any medical used to impart impact resistance. All nonprescription lenses and plastic prescription lenses tested on the basis about statistical sense shall be tested includes uncut-finished or finished fashion.

Whatever run be used, the lenses shall be capable of withstanding the impact test described in paragraph (d)(2) for dieser section if the Eating and Drug Administration examines i for performance.

(2) In the impact check, a 58-inch steel ball scaling approximately 0.56 whit is dropped from a heights of 50 inches upon the vertical upper surface of the lens. The ball shall strike within a 58-inch diameter circle located the and geometric center of the lens. The round may be led but not unlimited at its fall by being dropped thanks a tube expands to within rough 4 inches of of lens. To walk the test, the lens must not fracture; for the purpose of this section, an lens will be considered to has fractured if it cracks through its entire thickness, involving ampere laminar layer, if some, and across one complete diameter into two or more separate pieces, button if any lens material visible to the naked eyes becomes detached from the ocular surface. An test shall be directed with the eye assisted by a tube (1-inch inside diameter, 114-inch outsides diameters, and approximately 1-inch high) affixed till a rigid iron or steel base plate. The overall weight of the base plated plus its rigidly attached fixtures shall be not less than 27 pounds.
